Hi Romain, Thanks for your help on the Java 8 issues! My initial view of the patches looks good. I'm still doing some verifying and testing, but things are looking better. If things continue to check out, I'll post directly to the JIRAs and attempt to get them integrated soon.
As far as a new release is concerned... We still seem to have some outstanding issues related to the last release we did... We found a couple of missing items by accident and then someone called us on it: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2480 I haven't found the time to figure out what's left on that release. So, until we get those items resolved, we can't even think about another release... Thanks again.
